The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike

Chapter 1008
Veronica and the other members of Turner Group were also sitting in their chairs with grim expressions. This meeting was
nothing but torment for them.
Callum had won the battle, and it was a total victory.
After the meeting, Callum looked at his mother, who was sitting across from him in the chairman’s office. He said
expressionlessly, “I will arrange for you to go abroad tomorrow. I suggest you stay there for a few years before coming back.”
Ysabel sneered, “I won’t go abroad. What? Are you going to detain me again? Your own mother? You must know that’s illegal.
Aren’t you afraid I’ll sue you for doing this? Then it will be another scandal.”
Callum said indifferently, “I don’t intend to detain you. I’ll only tell you that if you refuse to go abroad, I’ll ensure all the shares you
hold become waste paper. As for your immovable properties, although they’re under your name, you weren’t the one who paid
the money to buy them, so I can also take them back. The longer you stay in the country, the more wealth you will lose.”
Ysabel’s face changed. “Are you really going to be so heartless?”
“You’re the one who was heartless first. I tried to let you go time and again, but you were unwilling to let me go,” Callum retorted.
“When have I not let you go? I just don’t want you to be with a woman like Lillian. What about her makes. her deserving of you?”
“So you forced Jerick to make that post and deliberately made it trending news. You going against Lillian is no different than
forcing me into action.” Callum approached Ysabel and said.
Ysabel stumbled back a step as her face turned pale and surprise flashed in her eyes.
Callum suddenly chuckled. “What? Are you surprised how I discovered all this? You gave Jerick a sum of money and told him
not to return for one year, so you thought everything was seamless, didn’t you?” Ysabel was so shocked that she couldn’t speak.
It turned out that her son already knew everything. “So you see, me asking you to go abroad is already an act of mercy. If you’re
still in Sloummont tomorrow, then I will take it as you openly declaring war on me. At that time, I won’t hold back anymore,”
Callum said in a deep voice, his words serving as one last warning.
Ysabel’s body trembled before she demanded, “You’re doing all this for Lillian, right? How could you treat me like this for her?
Does she deserve it? I’m the one who gave birth to you and raised you! Why would you do this to me?”

“Because she only thinks of me as ‘Callum.’ In her eyes, I am just Callum, not the young master of the White family or the head
of the White family. She would never use me!” Callum replied.
If he hadn’t met Lillian in this life, then he would have never known that someone could love him so purely and unconditionally.
“What? You think she won’t use you? When did you become so naive? She became pregnant before seeking you out again.
Clearly, she wants to use the child in her belly to turn her life around! I know best what a woman like her is thinking about. You
are just a tool for her to gain wealth and status!” Ysabel said mockingly.
However, Callum just looked at her coldly, not at all affected by what she said. “And that’s why you can never become someone
like her. I love her. To me, she is far more important than my own life. If you insist on hurting her, I don’t mind killing you, even if
you’re my mother!”
Ysabel was stunned and felt a chill run down her spine.
The black eyes before her, so similar to her own, were full of seriousness, which made her understand that he was not making
idle threats!
“That’s all I have to say. That’s why I suggest you go abroad as soon as possible, Mother. Maybe our mother-child relationship
will last longer this way.” Callum left after saying that.
Ysabel’s legs turned to jelly, and she collapsed on the ground, her body still trembling.
Lillian was waiting for Callum in the White residence. As soon as she saw Callum, she immediately came forward and asked with
concern, “How was today’s board meeting?”
1/2:
09:471
“Nothing happened. Everything remains the same,” Callum replied.
“So you won?” She was delighted.
“You could say that.” He said, “Put on a coat. I’ll take you out in a bit.”
“Where are we going?”

“To meet Jerick,” Callum answered.
Lillian was stunned. When she followed Callum to a private residence and saw Jerick, the man in front of her looked like he
hadn’t washed his hair in several days, making it appear greasy and limp. His clothes were also wrinkled, and she could tell he
had lost a lot of weight.
The person in front of her was completely different from the Jerick in her memory. The originally clean-shaven man looked utterly
dispirited now.
Upon seeing Lillian, Jerick smiled bitterly and said hoarsely, “Lillian, I’m sorry.”
“Why did you put up such a post? Why didn’t you explain when the netizens turned to attack me?” Lillian questioned. She had
been plagued with too many questions in recent days, all of which she wanted to ask him. She had even thought about beating
him up when they met again to relieve her anger.
However, now that she had seen him, she realized that he was much worse off than her.
“I had no choice,” Jerick replied.
“Was it because Callum’s mother gave you money?” Lillian asked. On the way here, Callum had told her that his mother was the
culprit behind Jerick’s recent actions.
Lillian knew how much Ysabel didn’t like her, so she was not too surprised. Nonetheless, she was afraid that Callum would feel
guilty and blame himself, so on the way here, she kept comforting him.
“I don’t know who gave me the money, but that person also gave me a plane ticket,” Jerick said.
“I thought we were friends, that you were an upright man, but I didn’t expect that money could buy you off so easily to make you
say something so cruel!” Lillian said coldly. “How much did you take? I want to know how much it was worth for you to go against
your conscience and slander me!”
“1.6 million dollars,” Jerick murmured, feeling uncomfortable. The woman in front of him was one he admired. He even once
thought that if he could marry her, maybe his life could get back on track, and he could look forward to his future life.
Unfortunately....
